Most implant healing is straightforward, but there are a few signs you shouldn’t brush off. 🚩
Some discomfort, swelling and light bleeding can be expected in the early stages after implant surgery.
What matters is how things progress.
Pain that gets worse, swelling that keeps increasing, persistent bleeding, discharge or an implant or restoration that feels loose should all be checked by your dental team.
If something doesn’t feel right, don’t wait for your next routine appointment.
